Teacher’s Day
Suitable for Hong Kong-based primary and secondary school teachers.

This year, the museum has specially commissioned two Hong Kong artists—Doris Wong and Kinchoi Lam.

Lam will share his picture book creation journey and overseas experiences, inspiring teachers with different approaches to artistic practice.

‘Teacher’s Day gives us the flexibility to enroll in different programmes. It also allows teachers to have enough time to freely enjoy the exhibitions after school hours, thus our daily work won’t be impacted.’—Participating secondary school teacher
‘Nice for teachers to book their preferred programmes, and the programme sessions and locations are very diverse. Teachers can plan their own visit according to their interests and even enquire on-site to learn more about upcoming school programmes. Kudos to M+ for their thoughtful arrangement.’—Participating primary school teacher
‘Explanations during the guided tours can connect the exhibition to a wider range of subject disciplines. It shows how the museum integrates knowledge from different disciplines, allowing teachers who do not teach visual arts to incorporate exhibition content or students’ museum experience into the school curriculum.’—Participating primary school teacher
‘The programme arrangement was quite good. There were guided tours for exhibitions with time to explore, artist sharing, and a workshop for direct experience. The variety is substantial.’—Participating secondary school teacher
‘Teacher's Day not only gave me a variety of art experiences in the museum, but also a new angle on art appreciation and self-awareness on seeing and communicating. It was not just providing information but a refreshing experience on mindfulness.’—Participating secondary school teacher
‘During the Open Classroom, teachers can learn about the rundown and content of the tour and workshop and understand how each activity will be understood from students’ perspective. They are very helpful for school planning on life-wide learning activities and have inspired teachers to design learning activities related to M+ Collections.’—Participating primary school teacher
‘Teachers can observe students experiencing artists’ and designers’ creative processes in the art-making activities during the Open Classroom and how students learn about the power of imagination and creative thinking of artists and designers.’—Participating primary school teacher
‘I like this format of thematic tours because it allows teachers to follow M+ Educators through the highlighted exhibits and see which works they plan to introduce to students and how their engagement would be. Some activities and guiding questions are quite nice and allow the students to think deeper about the artworks.’—–Participating secondary school teacher
